Description(English)	EPICURSUS is a design that integrates the functions of a wheelchair and a walker to address the difficulties that elderly individuals face during outdoor rehabilitation. In this design, the front and back wheels are swapped to improve the structure and user experience, and parts from a walker are used to replace the traditional footrest of a wheelchair. This design also makes it easier to navigate obstacles. Additionally, detachable accessories are included to facilitate communication and social interaction for the elderly. Such a design provides more freedom and convenience for older adults while also promoting their rehabilitation.
Description(Native)	老化是漸進式的過程而不是突發性的事件，我希望在這個過程中的長者們能夠保有身體與心理的健康。EPICURSUS是一個整合了輪椅和助行器功能的設計，以解決乘坐輪椅的長者在室外復健時的困難。這個設計將前輪和後輪對調以合理化結構和使用流程，並使用助行器的部件取代傳統輪椅的踏板，這樣設計也使得它更容易跨越前方的障礙物。此外，這個設計加入了可拆卸配件，讓長者更容易與人交流和互動。這樣的設計對於老年人來說，可以提供更多的自由和便利，同時也能夠促進他們的康復。EPICURSUS透過產品設計的思維改變傳統輪椅的使用情境，多元的使用方式滿足高齡族群外出的生理與心理需求，嶄新的產品外型也讓使用者更有自信的使用它,使壽命與健康壽命保持一致。
